Most of the characters in DBZ have names inspired by puns. Saiyan names are puns on vegetables, while Frieza's family members have names related to cold temperatures.
Goku's real name, Kakarot, is a play on carrot. Vegeta is from 'vegetable.' Namekians? Piccolo as in piccolo trumpet. The puns never end!
They got some wild names, right? Saiyans = veggies, Bulma's fam = undies, and Frieza's clan = freezer stuff. Gotta love Toriyama's humor.
